Biography

I studied at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, followed by Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts. I am a reed doubler (saxophones, clarinets, flute and piccolo), and an experienced pianist and vocalist.
I have performed in pit orchestras, on-stage bands and as an actor-musician for numerous London, regional and touring productions, including at the Shaftesbury, Savoy and Adelphi Theatres, Sane and Sound (Arcola), Max & Ivan: Commitment and Dracula! Mr Swallow: The Musical (Soho Theatre), Assassins (Pleasance, London), Some Lovers (The Other Palace), Oliver! (Aylesbury Waterside Theatre), ... Belshazzar’s Feast and Beethoven Symphony No. 9 (Barbican Centre), and the off-West End revival of London Road, alongside the national tour of an improvised musical. Please see my CV for more credits.
I am also a proficient and experienced gigging and studio musician; I regularly play for functions, events and in hotels as a reed player as part of a band, cocktail pianist, piano-vocalist, backing singer and solo instrumentalist.
I am very accustomed to performing in full costume, hair and make-up – both as an on-stage musician, and as an actor – and I am familiar and comfortable with very high-levels of grooming and stage presence, and long days due to my work in function bands, and as a stage performer.
I love performing; it truly is where I am happiest, most experienced, and I find it the most rewarding aspect of my career. My work so far has led me to meet wonderful people, entertain, and play brilliant repertoire.
